 APPLY FOUNDATION: Begin by applying your skincare, makeup primer, foundation and concealer. 


HIGHLIGHT CHEEKBONES: Apply a liquid highlighter to your cheekbone. You can use a pink, champagne or golden color to match your complexion or makeup look. Lauren is wearing a cool-pink shade. Blend the highlighter with a brush or dampened beauty blender.


DEFINE BROWS: Fill in brows with a powder and set with wax or gel.


APPLY BLUSH: Apply a cream blush in a pink or coral shade, to match your lipstick color.


APPLY EYESHADOW: Apply a shimmery champagne cream waterproof shadow to the eyelid up to the crease. Then apply a matte cream shadow that matches your skin tone to the area between her crease and brow. 


BLEND SHADOW: Next, apply a neutral matte brown eyeshadow to the crease and outer corner. Makes sure the shadow doesn't extend past the brows and doesn't fall below the outer corner. Then blend the edges.


DEFINE EYES: Apply a dark brown eye pencil along the upper lashes, slightly extend but don't make it a cat eye. Then use a brush to soften the edges.  Apply along the bottom lashes, making it soft and feathered using the brush. Curl eyelashes and apply black mascara. 


TOUCH UP FACE MAKEUP: Apply any additional concealer under your eyes, desired bronzer,  highlighting powder and finally translucent powder to your face.

APPLY LIP COLOR: For this look to pop you have to use a bright, glossy pink or coral lipstick/gloss. The color should not be too cool, neutral to warm works best. Once applied, finish the look with a water resistant setting spray (optional.)
